Since 1997, Jery and Jeanie McKelvy have conducted a periodic canvas of each cemetery in
the county and use additional resources to keep the listings current.

List by Cemetery

This is an old abandoned African-American cemetery . Only two graves are marked, but there are many graves marked by rocks. The approximate size is one half acre. I am told a church once existed near this cemetery.

Driving directions: From Rosston, go west on Hwy. 278 (formerly Hwy. 4) toward Hope for about 2 1/2 miles. About 1/4 mile past Rd. 36, there is a logging road leaving the highway to the left in a curve. The cemetery is down this road about 1/4 mile on the left side of the road.

This old abandoned cemetery is located on the south line of the SE 1/4 SE 1/4 of Section 26, Township 14 South, Range 20 West. I was told that this was a black cemetery and that a church once stood here, but it was later moved further southeast into Ouachita County. The cemetery is in the woods about 200 feet off County Road 179, commonly called Frogshack Road.

Driving directions: Since this cemetery is difficult to find, I will just say it is about 2 1/2 miles from the Nevada-Ouachita county line on Rd. 179, commonly called Frogshack Rd. A logging road will leave this road to the east. At this time a yellow painted property line runs east from the county road. The cemetery is about 200 feet from the road. A large oak tree and smaller pine trees stand near the graves. Since this is a very isolated area with many oil field roads, it would be wise to get someone to take you to this cemetery if you are not familiar with this area of the county.

These graves were listed in the old cemetery survey. The location was in a remote area north of Prescott "near the Boneyard". The location given was 10 miles north of Prescott and 4 miles north of Suckles Lake. We were not able to locate the graves for this survey.

There are no markers at this old family plot, but according to the earlier records, it is located on the old Elbert Billingsley place. I searched this location and could find no evidence of a cemetery. The most likely place is in a grove of large oak trees directly behind the old house place. The location is the SE1/4 SE1/4 of Section 20, Township 10 South, Range 22 West.

Driving directions: From Prescott, go north toward Gurdon about 1.5 miles. Turn left on Rd. No. 37 and go two miles just across the interstate. There will be a road to the left into a pasture. Just past this road on your left is the old Elbert Billingsley place. The earlier record stated that the cemetery was three-sixteenths of a mile due west across a field.

This old cemetery is located a few miles southwest of Prescott. It is in the NE1/4 SW1/4 of Section 23, Township 11 South, Range 23 West. It is not fenced and was badly grown up with grass when I visited it.

Driving directions: From Prescott, go out the Washington Rd. (Hwy. 332) about 2.6 miles. Just before crossing over I-30, turn left on Rd. No. 227 and travel on it until you reach a crossroads. Continue straight a little over 1/2 mile. The cemetery will be on your left just before the intersection with Rd. No. 225.

Former site of Providence Church. Located near Bodcaw. An African-American cemetery.

Driving directions: From the Hempstead- Nevada county line on Hwy. 278, go toward Rosston and turn right at crossroads on to Rd. 43. Go one mile and turn left on Rd. 11. Go about 2.5 miles and turn left on to a dim road leading to the cemetery. This is a dead end road.

From Prescott, go out Rd. 23 (also known as Cale Road) past the Moscow Cemtery. Continue on a few miles until just before the Terre Rouge Creek bottom. You will see a nice house sitting off the road to your left. The grave is in the woods about 200 to 300 feet from the house.

This is an African-American cemetery located on a gravel road near the northeast corner of the SW1/4 NW1/4 of Section 24, Township 13 South, Range 21 West in the Oak Grove community. The cemetery is still used for burials.

Driving directions: From Rosston, go northeast on Hwy. 200 about 2.5 miles. Turn right on County Road 430 and go about 1/2 mile. The cemetery will be on your left. The road will make a loop and come back out on Hwy. 200.

This very large cemetery is located on the eastern edge of Bluff City on the north side of Hwy. 24. The new section is on land donated by Doyle Harvey. It is fenced and very well maintained. A pavillion was constructed in the new section several years ago and some park benches were placed recently under the oak trees overlooking the old section of the cemetery.

Driving directions: Bluff City is located 19 miles east of Prescott on Hwy. 24. The cemetery is on the east side of town on the north side of the highway within sight of the Baptist church and the Church of Christ.

This is a very well maintained cemetery located in the northwest corner of Section 12, Township 13 South, Range 22 West. It is in a somewhat isolated area about 1/2 mile from the Bluff Springs Baptist church. When I visited here in late 1997, the timber surrounding the cemetery had recently been cut. This left the cemetery sort of exposed, but someone had just planted some flowering shrubs along the drive up to the cemetery. The cemetery is fenced.

Driving directions: From the intersection of Hwy. 278 and Hwy. 53, go east toward Rosston 1.3 miles. Turn left on Rd. No. 29 and go 1.2 miles to a fork. Take the left fork and continue for 7/10ths of a mile to the Bluff Springs Baptist church. Continue north on Rd. No. 29 for 6/10ths of a mile.

This old cemetery is located in the NE1/4 NE1/4 of Section 3, Township 11 South, Range 23 West. I do not know why it is called Voice Cemetery, since there are no marked graves of people by that name. There are only eight marked graves, but there are many unmarked graves. Mr. Brzeski, who owns the land where this cemetery is located, told me that there were rows of graves marked by rich pine boards when he purchased the land. He has replaced some of these with small, round concrete markers. The cemetery is about one third acre in size. Note: I have heard that the correct name for this cemetery is Boyce, but have not found any documentation to prove that. It was called Voice in the earlier records.

Driving directions: From Prescott, follow Hwy. 371 (once called Hwy. 24) toward Blevins to the Nevada-Hempstead county line. The cemetery is about 1/4 mile east of the highway across a pasture, almost directly in front of the Brzeski residence.

This old cemetery is at the same location as Sweet Home Cemetery (an African-American cemetery still in use). The Bryson graves are in the western part of the fenced area in a brushy area that is not being mowed with the rest of the cemetery. This cemetery was established originally when Robert H. Bryson was the first burial upon his return from the Civil War in 1865 and it was called Bryson Cemetery at that time. It became known as Sweet Home after it was adopted by the African-American community about 30 years later. At least one grave is outside the fenced area, so there could be other graves outside the fence that are not marked.

Driving directions: Turn off Hwy. 24 just east of Terre Rouge Creek onto County Rd. 290. Go about one mile and turn to the right on Rd. 407. Go about one half mile and it will merge with Rd. 41. Keep to the right. The cemetery will be on your right.

This cemetery is located by Morris Baptist church at the intersection of Hwy. 299 and Hwy. 200. The cemetery is fenced and well maintained and is fairly large in size.

This cemetery is located in the woods about 1.5 miles northeast of New Hope Baptist Church No. 2. Access is by logging road off County Rd. 7.

Mendenhall was once a community just inside Nevada County on Hwy 278 (formerly Hwy. 4). I had heard of a Mendenhall cemetery, but could not find any information about where it was located.
